Moored Boats Signed Maurice Sijs

1900 - 1920
Description

Oil on canvas.

MAURICE SIJS (1880-1972)

Maurice Sijs was born in Ghent on 27 October 1880. He died on 16 May 1972.

Sijs painted for ten years in a studio on a houseboat, which he named ‘’t Nest’. From there he sailed along the streams and rivers of Flanders, the Netherlands and France. In 1923 he re-established his studio in Ghent.

Sijs belonged to the second Group of Latem along with Léon and Gustave De Smet, Constant Permeke and Fritz van den Berghe.

He first exhibited in 1907 at the Cercle Artistique et Littéraire of Ghent. Sijs painted mainly Leie views, fishing boats and small harbours, domestic scenes and portraits. His art is characterised by a delicate colouring and technical mastery.

FAQs

Belgian maritime painting from this period frequently displays Post-Impressionist influences, featuring visible brushwork, textured application, and a focus on coastal harbours, fishing vessels, and natural light along northern European shores.

Artists during this period typically utilised oil pigments bound with linseed oil applied directly to stretched linen or cotton canvas over a prepared ground.

Authenticity is evaluated by inspecting artist signatures, assessing natural canvas oxidisation on the reverse, examining age-appropriate craquelure, and reviewing historical sales records or catalogues.

Position the artwork as a focal point above a console table or sideboard, pairing its earthy palette with neutral linen textiles, natural wood furniture, and subtle brass accents.

Display the canvas away from direct sunlight and sources of high humidity. Dust gently using a clean, soft microfibre brush, and consult an art conservator for surface restoration.
